California Gov. elect Gavin Newsom says he’s giving up control of his wine and hotel business. That’s not all, he also says he’ll issue an executive orders so that no state agencies can even do any business with the company so there are no conflicts of interest. The PlumpJack Group has four hotels; four Napa Valley wineries; several bars and restaurants; a couple of wine and liquor stores in San Francisco; and an online liquor store too. He says he’s going to transfer title and control to a blind trust managed by Shyla Hendrickson, a family friend and lawyer. He’s going to be sworn in Monday, January 7th. He also says he’s going to release his tax returns every year to reporters, but not the general public.
